Chapter 6 The Adventure Begins

Haneda Field…The noise and the crowds were overwhelming, the number of people arriving and departing beyond belief. Staring out the bay windows of the airport Tohru took everything in with wide-eyed amazement. This was her first trip to the busy Tokyo airport and she couldn't believe she was leaving Japan for the first time in her life. This new adventure was both exciting and bittersweet. Exciting because she was going to visit the mysterious island nation of Greece and bittersweet because neither Yuki nor Kyo had spoken to her beyond what was necessary since the trip to Greece was announced at dinner on Thursday. Yuki had looked like he wanted to speak a couple of times but never did. Kyo would come down from the roof, eat and return to the roof.

If Shigure had not kept her busy shopping for the appropriate clothing and helping him with his preliminary research it would have been a very long week-end. Of course Hatori had insisted on coming by to be sure she and Shigure were in good health and had all the required immunizations on Saturday. And to no one's great surprise, Momiji had popped in on Sunday to visit and present her with a lovely bouquet of flowers as a "Bon Voyage" gift. Kagura had arrived with Hatori this morning and promised to take care of Shigure's house, and of Tohru's garden and flowers for as long as necessary. Kagura had just graduated from University this year and wasn't quite sure what she wanted to do next so, much to most people's surprise, Akito had encouraged her to keep her eye on Shigure's house while she considered her next step.

"Miss Tohru Honda, please come to the information desk. Miss Tohru Honda…"

She was startled from her reverie by her name on the loudspeakers. "I wonder what this is about…"

She approached the information desk and was surprised when Yuki turned to greet her.

"Yuki-kun!"

His beautiful smile instantly came into play as he came to a standstill in front of her.

She couldn't stop the answering smile on her face. "Yuki-kun, aren't you supposed to be on your way to University?" she asked in wonder.

I already dropped my bags there, but then as I was trying to decide what to do next I realized something very important. I couldn't leave things as they were this weekend. I am afraid both Kyo and I may have caused you great distress in our unwillingness to accept your departure. I could not leave you thinking that you had done something wrong. In fact, you did nothing wrong Miss Honda. That is why…that is why I came to see you off. Have a very good trip Miss Honda and please accept this as my "Bon Voyage" gift to you. I bought it for your birthday, but since you won't be here I thought now was a good time to present it." He offered her a beautifully wrapped box.

"For me? May I open it?"

"Of course, please do. I didn't want you to forget us while you were gone," he said with a grin.

Tohru opened the box to find a silver charm bracelet with a dozen charms featuring each of the Zodiac animals and the cat. "It's beautiful Yuki-kun, but there are only twelve charms, the dog is missing. Did I already lose one?" Tohru looked around at the floor frantically.

A hard, angry look crossed Yuki's face for a moment, but his smile was back in place as he regained her attention.

"No Miss Honda, you didn't lose one. I didn't add the dog to the bracelet. After all, Shigure is going to be underfoot the whole trip so there's no danger of you forgetting the dog of the Zodiac, right?"

"That's…uhmm…true I suppose. I see, I think." She replied although she remained a little confused.

Yuki leaned over and kissed her cheek, the gesture was accompanied by sighs of all the women within sight of the fond farewell. "Such a handsome polite young man, and so sweet…"

"Have fun; Miss Honda, I'll look forward to your return. I have to hurry or I'll miss the next bus."

"Thank you Yuki-kun, I'll see you then," Tohru called after him. He waved as he disappeared down the escalator.

Yuki stepped outside the terminal and glanced down at his clenched fist. He forced his fingers to relax and opened his hand. He stared down at the golden charm in the shape of a dog. "You did nothing wrong Miss Honda, but I will not forgive either Shigure or Akito for taking you so far away from us." He thought about dropping the charm in the sewer grate, but then reconsidered and stuck it into the pocket of his shirt. He looked toward the bus stop and spotted Kyo waiting for him.

"Did you see her? Did you give her my note?" he demanded. "Why'd you have to kiss her you damn rat?"

Yuki frowned at his red headed cousin. "Stupid cat, if you already know the answers to the questions, why'd you ask. You were spying on us." It was a statement not a question.

"No of course I wasn't. I just wanted to see her smile one more time before she left so I hid around the corner," Kyo admitted. His embarrassment was plain on his features.

Yuki relented and answered his question. "I put your note in the pocket of her purse just as you requested. I'm sure she'll find it when she goes to get her ticket ready…if it doesn't fall out first."

"You damn rat I'll…."

"You'll what stupid cat? It would have been simpler to just say good-bye in person."

"I know, but I couldn't…. I couldn't face her after I was so mean this weekend. The bus is here, let's go."

Tohru was watching the bus stop with Kyo's note held tightly in her hand. She saw Kyo's red head as he and Yuki boarded the bus. "Oh Mom, they both came to see me off, I feel so much happier now."

She turned with a happy grin and saw Shigure crossing the concourse to join her. She waved to him and his long stride brought him quickly to her side.

"Tohru-kun! Tohru-kun…it was horrible! Such a long time in line and no one there to talk to! I was so lonesome…" His expression was tragic and Tohru responded apologetically.

"Shigure-san, I am so sorry. I was so fascinated by the planes. They are amazing but I should have come with you. I truly am sorry for being so thoughtless."

Shigure took pity on the distraught young woman. "Never mind Tohru-kun. I survived. Besides, you would have gotten out of line when you were paged to the front desk. Hmmm….Who was awaiting you at the front desk I wonder? Was it a secret lover Tohru-kun or perhaps…" Shigure's sharp eyes spied the letter and he snapped his fingers. "I know it was a courier with a letter from your secret lover!" he teased with a grin.

"What…Shigure-san, you have the wrong idea. It was Yuki-kun at the front desk. He came to say good bye and left a letter from Kyo-kun as well."

"Two lovers and I know them both! Tohru-kun, I must say I am surprised. What was that this weekend? Spats among lovers? "

"Shigure-san! You know that's…"

"That's what Tohru-kun? Total fiction—of course it is. I have to say that I am disappointed though. I could have begun my book with the heroine being kidnapped by pirates and leaving not only one, but two erstwhile lovers behind and then continued from there. How her maidenly virtue was compromised by an older much more attractive man and her two young men come sailing over the sea to rescue her …and the heroine would be you Tohru-kun."

Tohru saw the twinkle in his eyes just as she was preparing to lodge another protest. "You are only teasing me again Shigure-san," she said with a giggle.

"You are beginning to learn, Tohru-kun."

"Learn? Learn what Shigure-san?"

"To recognize when I am teasing of course."

"Oh, that."

"Yes, that. I assume the lovely charm bracelet adorning your wrist was a gift from Yuki, so the letter must be from Kyo. May I see the bracelet?"

"Oh, of course."

Shigure accepted the bracelet and looked at the craftsmanship on the charms and returned it. "There is a charm missing Tohru-kun."

"I know. It's the dog. I asked Yuki-kun about it."

After Tohru explained Yuki's reason Shigure laughed inwardly. "My dear rat may have forgiven Tohru-kun for her abandonment, but you are still angry with me and probably Akito for engineering it. Well, que sera sera." All he said to Tohru was "I am certain that makes sense from Yuki's point of view."

"What?" Tohru in her confusion made a charming picture that he couldn't ignore. He took Hatori's new digital camera out of his coat pocket and snapped her picture.

"Nothing Tohru-kun, nothing that matters. Let's go eat; it is still an hour before we have to board our plane."

"Uhmmm…Shigure-san, I probably should have asked before, but everything was so busy, what does our flight schedule look like."

Shigure stopped in mid action of taking a bite of his Spaghetti. "Let me think, it's twelve hours to Amsterdam, a four and a half hour layover, and then another three hours to Athens. I do hope you are a good traveler Tohru-kun. This will be a long flight."

"I'm sure I am Shigure-san. Nothing defeats Tohru Honda, not even Mr. Airplane."

Shigure smiled at her enthusiasm and continued his meal. With only ten minutes to boarding he and Tohru were running down the concourse to their gate. They made it just as the final boarding call was announced. With a sigh of relief, Shigure allowed Tohru to precede him onto the plane and prepared to enjoy her delight in all that she would see.

He was not disappointed. Tohru gazed out the window in total awe. "Shigure-san, I've never flown above the clouds. They are so beautiful from up here. And another time, "Shigure-san, what is all that blue down there? Is it really the ocean? It's so huge…I feel like it will roll on and on forever…it's amazing that there can be so much water in the world."

She marveled at the mountains and the tall buildings of other nations when she caught a glimpse of them. Every new topographic feature was a source of wonderment to her eyes. Eventually she did doze off as the activity and the stress of the previous weekend took its toll on even her unquenchable vitality.

"So even Tohru Honda has to recharge her batteries on occasion," Shigure mused. He took his book out and began to read it, but that was short lived as a sleeping Tohru Honda slipped over onto his shoulder. He was startled at first, but then found it a not unpleasant sensation. His only worry was that she would slip too far and trigger the curse. A dog in a first class passenger seat would not be well received and people would question how it had gotten there. Unaware of his worries an older couple across the aisle offered him their smiles.

"You and your young lady are new to each other aren't you? I can tell. I remember when Arthur and I were your ages; we were quite shy with each other as well. She's very lovely and you obviously love her very much don't you?" the elderly woman asked with bright curious eyes.

Shigure felt himself beginning to squirm a little uncomfortably. He may admit to himself his feelings for Tohru, but he was not going to announce them to the rest of the world. He searched for the best response but was saved from having to find it by the lady's partner.

"Esmeralda, mind you own business. I would wager he is only just now discovering his feelings for the girl. Give a guy a chance to get used to them before you start prying into them."

"You're right of course Arthur. Forgive me young man. I didn't mean to embarrass you."

"Embarrassed? Me? Not really, but she might have been if she were awake. Unlike me, she is still very shy," he replied with one of his more charming smiles. It was calculated to make women forget their questions and seemed to work quite well on her.

Just then a flight attendant approached. "Good afternoon sir, may I get you something to drink and perhaps a blanket and pillow for your wife."

"Uh…she's not…" Shigure mentally shrugged. Why not? After all that was his ultimate goal wasn't it? "A blanket and a pillow will do nicely and I'll have a glass of Merlot, please."

The attendant soon returned with the requested items. The fact that she believed he was married did not keep her from lingering to flirt with the gorgeous gentleman. However, in time she was needed by other passengers and had to move on. After she left Shigure turned his attention to Tohru. During his conversation with the flight attendant she had slipped even farther down his shoulder. He would have to adjust her position or one of his worst fears would become reality. He gently shifted her towards the window but she fell back onto his shoulder once again. If it was anyone but Tohru, he would declare it intentional. He tried to shift her twice more with similar results and gave up the attempt. Instead, he shifted her just enough so that he could cover her with the blanket and place the pillow between her and the arm of the seat so that it would not dig into her slender waist. In the process her long tresses twined themselves around his fingers. They were softer than silk and he hesitantly began the delicate process of untwining them. He managed to free his hands, but in doing so he found his heart to be held ever more tightly. After all was complete he glanced around to see if he was unobserved. It appeared no one was taking notice of him and he surreptitiously reached over to stroke the shining brown curls. He checked again to see if anyone had noticed and Arthur winked at him from across the aisle.

"Affection is okay you know young man, you needn't be afraid of someone laughing at you or taking her away if you are caught. Most people find young love to be so very sweet." Alfred shifted his shoulder so he could make Esmeralda more comfortable. She had fallen asleep at Alfred's side in a manner very similar to Tohru's position at Shigure's side.

As Tohru snuggled into a more comfortable position at his side, Shigure came to a realization. He was free! There was no one watching him, no one in front of whom he had to keep up appearances, and no one to disapprove of his actions. It was different from that time long ago, but the feelings were familiar and frightening. For just a moment his heart was submerged by the ancient pain he had told Hatori he no longer felt. He glanced at the girl sleeping by his side and a cleansing tide washed it all away. There was no going back to the past, but there was moving forward and trying again. His words to Kyo returned to haunt him. He had insisted Kyo go out and interact with the world, with other people. He had assured Kyo that this was a good thing even if it meant getting hurt in the process. He had meant that sage advice for everyone but himself. Rin had accused him of treating people like things, and Mayuki-chan had expressed similar sentiments. There was truth in those accusations. He tended to like people to the degree that they could prove useful to him. Beyond that, he had very little use for them…at least he had been that way. His family's policy had always been to keep people at a distance although it was less evident in Shigure than the others. He was very skillful in hiding that tendency. Tohru had changed that for everyone to one degree and another. He remembered another thing Mayuki-chan had said. She had told him to take better care of Tohru Honda, not to let her carry too much of the burden. He had responded that he took more care of Tohru than he ever had of anyone else. She had scoffed at his declaration. Mayu-chan, you should see me now. You would be surprised at how much care I am taking. As a matter of fact, you would be surprised at how much I do care.

He pulled out his book and began reading once more as he sipped his wine. He realized his concentration was only half on the book; the other half was puzzling out what to do once they were in Greece. Would his pursuit of Tohru be in her best interest? The logical, manipulating, calculating side of Shigure said to keep his hands off policy intact. It told him it was okay to be the object of a person's affections. It was okay to be loved, to be cared for, as long as he did not love, as long as he did not care in return. Emotion, real emotion, made you weak had been his belief for many years. There was another side though, a side that wanted to take a chance again, to fall in love again, to have someone fall in love with him. That was the part of him that only his best friend had seen. Only Hatori knew that side even existed. Hatori also knew that this part of him existed for Tohru and only for her.

Alfred watched the Sohma gentleman and the young woman from his vantage point across the aisle. There was a definite air of cynicism and world weariness about him but it faded when he looked at the girl by his side. Alfred's mission was to watch and to encourage them in the subtlest fashion possible. The young Sohma head did tell him he must be very careful in his observation as his older cousin was very sharp and had a suspicious turn of mind. This was going to be a fun assignment. It was quite evident that Shigure Sohma was very fond of Tohru Honda, but her feelings were a little harder to decipher. She was one of the rare individuals who never met a stranger and who had love enough in her heart for the whole world if it was needed. Her very nature made it hard to decide if she had especial feelings for the man with whom she was traveling. Her openness and friendliness with everyone she came into contact with made it hard to gauge the depth of her feelings for just one person.

Tohru awakened when the flight was about two hours out from Amsterdam. Her first awareness was of a warm secure shoulder where she had been sleeping comfortably. Her second awareness was that the shoulder belonged to Shigure-san. She bounced up in her seat, a good imitation of a child's rubber ball. "Shigure-san, please excuse me. Oh I can't believe that I fell asleep on your shoulder…what you must think…it was terribly thoughtless of me. I mean I…you…" In her agitation she hit her head on the window. "Ow! That hurts. I'm so clumsy. Shigure-san…"

"Tohru-kun…Tohru-kun…shhh…let me have a look at where you hit hour head. As for you using my shoulder as your pillow, I quite enjoyed it. It isn't every day that someone such as I has such a lovely young woman almost asleep in his arms. I mean just a little lower and…"

"Shigure-san, this is terrible. I could have caused…the secret. I could have given away the secret."

"Ahh yes, the secret. Yes you did come very close to giving that away, but Tohru-kun you didn't. However; if you don't calm down you could still do that. Besides, I already said I did not mind. Hmmm…no damage from your collision with the window. It is all right Tohru-kun, truly. Of course…if you really want to make amends for causing me so much trouble you could marry me." Shigure's calm, matter-of-fact voice penetrated Tohru's panic. It was a moment longer before the last part of his commentary registered on her consciousness.

"Ehh…Shigure-san…you can't…we can't…I mean I…I mean we shouldn't…Just because I fell asleep on your shoulder doesn't mean…."

"Tohru-kun, I'm only joking."

Tohru breathed a sigh of relief and Alfred hid a smile behind his uplifted hand as he watched her shenanigans. His eyes sharpened immediately upon sensing the catch in Shigure's voice as he assured the young lady that he really was teasing.

"Yes, of course you are…Silly me…of course you didn't mean that." She smiled sweetly at him.

Alfred thought he could detect just a hint of wistfulness in her voice and in her smile, but he didn't know if that was really the case or just a bit of wishful thinking. He suddenly felt that these two really did belong together. He wasn't sure why or how, but he was certain that was to be their destiny.

"How much longer to Amsterdam Shigure-san?"

"Only a couple of hours."

"Okay, excuse me for a minute please"

She slipped out of her seat and headed toward the front of the plane and the facilities located there.

"She's quite excitable isn't she?"

"Yes she is, but that's our Tohru-kun. We wouldn't have it any other way." Shigure smiled fondly at the girl's retreating form.

"You say we, is she a member of your family?"

"Technically, no. However I have been her guardian for six years. Last May she turned 21 and my guardianship ended. She has continued to live with my two cousins and I since then. My words, she'll turn 22 while we are in Greece. I'll have to arrange something special for her birthday!"

Just then Tohru returned and Shigure shifted so she could return to her seat.

She glanced across the aisle and smiled at Alfred. "Sanderson-san, are you enjoying your flight? It looks like your wife must be very tired."

"She is Miss Honda, she always wears herself down right before we leave on a trip. This has been a very enjoyable flight. And for you?"

"It's been wonderful. I've never flown before you see and I can't wait to write to Yuki-kun, Kyo-kun, and Momiji to tell them all about it!"

And so the conversation continued until it was time to land in Amsterdam. Tohru's lively chatter had made the two hours fly and Alfred learned a lot about the Sohma he would never have guessed. Tohru glanced out the window and gasped in amazement. "Shigure-san! There are so many gardens! This is a beautiful country!"

Shigure slipped his travel guide to Amsterdam into his pocket. "I knew you would like the gardens Tohru-kun. That's why we are going to spend our layover in the Keukenhof Garden. They will delight and astound you, and we can get a good meal there as well."

Tohru clapped her hands in delight. "Shigure-san, that sounds perfect!"

The plane landed and Shigure collected their carry-on luggage. "Shall we Tohru-kun?"

"Of course" She turned to Alfred and Esmeralda. "Sanderson-san, Mrs. Sanderson, it was wonderful to meet you. I hope we will see you again. Good Afternoon."

Alfred, if ever two young people belonged together it's those two."

"Esme dear, that is why you and I have an all-expense paid trip to Greece right now."

As the elderly couple plotted how to make things happen, Shigure's sharp hearing picked up the gist of what they were saying. He grinned as he hailed a taxi to take them to Keukenhof. A couple of extra helping hands probably wouldn't hurt his case at all.

"Shigure-san, you look very happy right now. Do you enjoy travel this much?"

"Yes Tohru-kun, I enjoy travelling with you very much."

"What…"

"Never mind Tohru, I do like to travel and it's been several years since I have had the chance. We're going to have as much fun as we possibly can while getting our research done. Deal?"

"Deal, Shigure-san." They arrived at the gardens and he offered her his hand. "You better take my hand so we don't get separated Tohru-kun. We are on a timetable and don't want to miss our plane."

"Oh, of course…" Tohru felt her cheeks growing warm as she placed her hand in his. "Oh Mom," she sighed inwardly. "That strange effect is still here. It's been six years since I went to live together with him and Yuki-kun, and Kyo-kun, but holding their hands has never caused this feeling within me. Why him, and why now? He's so handsome and so kind to me, I can't help but like him a lot. But Mom, the other Sohma are just as nice and just as kind so why is this feeling different from my feelings for them?"

Between the distraction of her thoughts and Shigure's fast pace Tohru managed to stumble on an uneven paving stone. She fell against Shigure and only had time to think "OH NO!" There was an audible POOF. "Shigure-san, oh no, I'm so sorry. What do we do now?"

Shigure darted into a thick blanket of flowers behind the nearest bench. "Tohru-kun, this is going to be okay if you keep calm. No one saw me change. Grab my clothes and put them in your bag. It may be a little tricky though, I'm not sure what the rules are for pets in here, especially without a leash."

At Shigure's behest Tohru tucked his clothes into her backpack, which was more than half-empty. It was half-empty because Shigure had suggested it be kept that way. He had anticipated occasions such as this, but not in such a public conspicuous location.

"I am so clumsy. How could I have…"

"Tohru-kun, sit down and calm down."

She heeded Shigure's instructions and sat down on a white bench that had been placed in a strategic positon for viewing much of the garden's delights. She appeared to be simply observing the beautiful blooms and if anyone had seen her tuck a man's suit into her backpack, they were all too polite to say anything.

Shigure eyed the crowds from the far side of the bench and sighed in relief when he realized there were families present with their pets in tow. Tohru noticed as well and moved completely from panic mode to mirth mode. She began to giggle as she took Shigure's tie out of her back pack. "Come here Poochie" she coaxed with a smile. "Remember when Uo and Hana visited" she reminisced.

"Poochie again, Tohru-kun, can't you come up with something more original?" Shigure said in a pained tone of voice.

"But why, it's simple and it's cute. I like it."

"Well, there is that Tohru-kun" Tohru giggled again, it was funny to see a dog rolling his eyes.

Shigure noticed they were beginning to get a few strange looks because they were hearing his voice but not seeing the origin of the sounds.

"Here Poochie, you were a bad boy to run away and lose your leash. Come here and let's use this for now."

"Tohru-kun, you are having too much fun with this at my expense" Shigure complained. He flinched as he realized she intended to use his best silk tie as a leash. Then he had to admit, at least it wasn't the hideous blue tie with orange polka dots that Ayame had convinced Ritsu would be the perfect present for Shigure last year. He shuddered at the thought of using that tie as a leash. Ayame would never have presented a gift like that personally, after all he had a reputation to uphold, but he did like the practical jokes every now and then.

As she leaned over to fasten the tie he whispered, "Be sure to hug me every so often so I don't transform back at an inopportune moment." Tohru's eyes widened and he realized she hadn't considered that possibility. She leaned over and hugged him tightly in acknowledgement of his warning. Shigure the dog mentally shrugged his shoulders. "She is loveable, she is cute, but she is woefully shortsighted at times when it comes to common sense and the bigger picture. One more reason why she needs me," he decided.

She led him down the garden path, his best blue and gold silk tie as his leash. She would stop every now and then to wrap her arms around him and point out a particularly beautiful plot of flowers. Just a typical girl and her dog, right? Well, maybe not but he was loving every minute of it. Hatori and Aya would be having a heyday at his expense, but that would be okay…Hatori needed to smile more often. Perhaps he should make sure the story got back to him…of course if Tohru described the occurrence to Momiji, there was no doubt but that it would.

After a while they reached the end of a more secluded path lined by thicker and higher plant growth than most of what they had seen. There was no one else around at the moment so Tohru took the tie off of his neck and pulled his clothes out of her backpack. "Shigure-san, hurry while no one else is watching" He didn't need the invitation twice. He took his clothes and navigated into the thickets. Tohru knelt by the path as she drank from a bottle of water that had appeared from the depths of the bag. She waited and hoped it would not take too terribly long for him to transform and get dressed once again. She was also being the guard to steer people away from that particular spot. They only had to wait three minutes but it seemed more like 30 minutes. POOF! He quickly donned his clothes and rejoined her on the path. "Shigure-san, I am so happy to see you again , I would just like to hug you." She took a step toward him.

Shigure stepped back quickly and ended up tripping over a plant he had forgotten was there. From the ignominous position on his rear, he looked up at her. "Please don't Tohru-kun. I've been hugged enough for one day."

Tohru giggled at the hand he had stretched out in front of him toprotect him from more hugs. "Of course I wouldn't do that Shigure-san, did you really think I would?"

"Well of course not," he said a little huffily as he used his hand as a lever to regain his feet and then folded his arms across his chest as if that had been his intention all along. Tohru continued to giggle and he found himself chuckling with her. "Tohru-kun, it's nice to know life still holds some surprises."

Tohru was very careful to watch her steps the remainder of the day and Shigure made sure he kept pace with her so she wouldn't have to hurry to keep up. The rest of the afternoon was carefree and wonderful. Dinner was superb and she couldn't help but be astounded at the colorful bursts of spring all around her. Occasionally one would catch the other's eye and the memory of the earlier incident would set off fresh gales of laughter. People looked at them every once in a while, probably wondering if they were sane, but it didn't really matter to the two of them. Shigure felt as if he had been given a new lease on life and Tohru found herself more carefree than she had ever been before.

As they boarded the flight for the final three hours to Greece she couldn't contain her gratitude and joy. "Shigure-san, this has been one of the best days of my life. Thank you for planning our time in that wonderful garden."

"Tohru-kun, be careful with your thanks, you never know but I might expect more than you can give."

"What do you mean Shigure-san?"

"Never mind Tohru-kun. Ask Momiji to explain it when you write him."

"Momiji knows what you mean?"

"I am certain he does."
